Nope, I'm heading to SFMarine World or what ever the new name is...and SFMM next spring. I'm sticking to DL, DCA, and maybe Knott's. If it's not a 15 minutes away, I doubt I could get to it. -JZ

200 feet tall is only off the ground. What's to say that the drop can't extend plenty further than that? That's where this ride's going to get it's big, steep drop - somewhere in that ravine. Beast - 110' Tall........140' Drop. And that's just one of the small dips in the woods... -JZ

No, because it is CF, it will be the bestest, longest and awesomest coaster outside of Sandusky Ohio. I am thinking that the Golden Ticket will not be enough for this coaster, a new Platinum Ticket will be created. And you left out the 1.5 hours of airtime it will have. Oops, now I am in trouble. The name Mustang also goes along with the "naming a coaster so the first letter is M" theme with CF. And for the record, i am still willing to live up to the bet I made about my ill fated Buckeyes, which of course, since its Ohio, the Buckeyes are the bestest, most awesomest football team (until the national title game) ...hahahahahaha! The Buckeyes quote was awesome. I'm surprised there isn't something like that in Ohio already...

The only time I can think of the park 'hyping' up the guests in the park for an upcoming ride is when they were building SoB. Remember how the box was closed and made random movements and growling noises?

Wow, three hours on a GCI! That'd be heaven!! Seeing all this stuff makes me want to get on a TPR trip..soon! Thanks for the updates! -JZ

Well, the longest coasters are: -Steel Dragon 2000 - 8133' 2" Yeah, that ride is MASSIVE and long. -Beast - 7,300' -SoB - 7,000' To beat those...you'll need to have a giant drop and have it going for a long, long time. But how about the most coaster track in one park...could they pull that off? B&M's Hypers range from as short at 3,800' (Hollywood Dream) to as long as 5,300' (Nitro, Silver Star). Goliath - SFoG is just under 5,000; Goliath - La Ronde is about 4,800; RB is around that, and I forget about the others. Now, to make the longest B&M, you'd need to put together like, one and a half Goliath's or Nitro's or something like that. With KI's woods, I think meandering through the trees low to the ground at high speeds could be awesome, and take up a bunch of track...so maybe it can be done?

I've been on so many great coasters....and they are so different, it's hard to pick a number one! Here are some coasters I can consider number one in my collection of credits. All pics are mine! GOLIATH - SFoG Tower of Terror - Dreamworld, AU Top Gun:TJC/Afterburn - Carowinds Top Thrill Dragster, baby! Maverick - CP Millennium Force Kentucky Rumbler! Yeah...I like a LOT of my coasters Wicked Twista! Mantis - CP Raptor - CP

Excellent, excellent, excellent! Wow dude, some really great photos in there! Some...I mean, all! This TR is a treat! Keep it up! -JZ

Sounds like Mick Doohan's coaster. -Slow loading times -Fun, but short -Down Time I had a few good rides, but one of them the restraint really slammed down over my thighs...it killed. I'll see if I'll be able to get on this...it's nothing that really interests me. Yay, Accelerator! -JZ

Yeah, I was! I had the mohawk Guys...James guaranteed this B&M, now I am. It's a B&M. A big thing I think people are missing about this ride is the whole lake area cleared. It goes allll the way back up to the Eiffel Tower and by Blacklot. I think it will take a splash, turn right and head up there for another bunny hop and like....a helix or something. There's a LOT more room than you guys might think.

You guys aren't going to believe this... BUT! I ran into my aunt and uncle today down at my brother's bball game right by the Ohio river. They live just on the other side in KY. My uncle is an engineer and of course I had to bring up theme parks and my recent news of the DL trip. Well, he mentioned that the Swiss designer, from B&M had rented a house for a year next door to them! Unbelievable! Here's what I learned: -It's going to have a splash down at the beginning or end -It's going to have a drop as big as 200ft -It's going to go all over the park -Steel will begin to be put up at the end of July -Main track work wants to be finished by winter I'm trying to find out more details! Maybe I can go down and meet him! -JZ

Disneyland is the big trip and what it's all about. Knott's is just kinda there and it just to happens that I have a CF employee pass that gets me into all CF parks! So, it's an option. I'd go to the park just for Accelerator. I mean I'm not sure when I'm going to be back in that part of Cal. I should be getting an agenda on what's going on and when. I'm sure I will have some down time, and I hope I can fit it in. -JZ

Well guys, get ready to be jealous, because I have good news . You see, my uncle is a president of a big advertising agency, and he gets a LOT of privileges. And I just got word that we have front of the line passes. Thanks soooo much for the help so far guys, but just letting you know lines will NOT be a problem! -J 'VIP' Z

Also to mention....there is already green grass growing! I went last night for the fireworks and shows. It wasn't too too crowded...I just went on the Racer (Red) and SoB. My SoB ride was at 10:10PM...it was breath taking approaching the lift hill and seeing the fireworks not only right infront of you....but allll over the distance, from the left to the right. It was a front seat ride, it was smooth...and the ride is slowly growing on me. It's just a great time and a sure stop by when I go to KI. -JZ

Hey guys, I just got off the phone with my Uncle, and he's been invited to a big Disneyland party and he can take some friends! As some of you may know, yesterday was my bday...and so this is my present! Here's what I know: -We're staying at the Grand California Hotel (or something like that) -We have access to both parks -And....Knott's it 15 minutes away! I've been to WDW, and I'm really looking foreword to Disneyland! I know they have the staples - Thunder Mtn, Space Mtn, Splash Mtn, ToT....and also Matterhorn. CA has CA Screamin' and Mullhold Madness or something like that. Oh...is the whole "Rockin' Space Mtn" and Rockin' CA Screamin' thing still going on? I loooove the Peppers! I'm going Wednesday the 22nd (I think) until that Saturday! I need help on getting to know the park. Lines, rides, policies. KNOTTS: It's something that's there...and I have a CF Employee pass, so if I have some spare time, I'd go...why not while I'm out there! I need to know how bad the lines would be for this park. I could go for just an hour...or for a few more! Xcellerator looks badass! If anyone would like to meet up, I'd be more than happy to say hello!!! Thanks in advanced guys! -J 'I'm goin' to Disneyland! ' Z

Well, I got a chance to talk with some of the guys yesterday at KI. And on the way out it looked like there was a bus there to take them home. Looks like KI is taking a step in the right direction. -JZ

There has been soooo much talk around KI as far as wether the ride will be an Invert or Hyper or DM. No one really knows, and that's the truth! -JZ

I know Cedar Point has a LOT of international workers...but they get like, "on campus" housing, don't they?

http://www.wcpo.com/mostpopular/story.aspx?content_id=76b7df73-2080-4380-a42a-f8b5321418d1 - Video is found here. I was completely shocked by this. It was absolutely horrible to hear about this. I just say it on TV. I've seen some of these guys around KI and I've heard about the international programs...and considered it for other countries. What was even worse is that Don Helbig couldn't even respond! I don't know how KI is going to bounce back from this bad PR. -JZ

Here's one more.... Like, the valley..OMG

Some picture updates. Overview More electrical work Ready for some high wire stunts? Today at 2 and 7PM! Lots of water from recent storms.

Dude, he's told us he can't say. We just have to wait. Anywho, I've heard the gorge/river now has water running through it. Maybe we'll have an announcement today? -JZ

Wait....78 rides on the Beast in one day?! Sorry if I read that incorrectly...but a five minute ride plus like....3 minutes to get people on and off the train would be like 10 hours on the Beast. That doesn't make sense...that's just a waste of time. Besides that, POV pics can get you ejected from the park! -J 'that's something...' Z
